Bathory

Real Name:
Tomas Forsberg
Profile:
Bathory was essentially a one-man band, fronted by Quorthon and filled out with an endless string of session players who usually only lasted one album.

Based in Sweden, Bathory is widely regarded as a pioneer of the modern black metal sound, and everybody who is anybody in black metal likes to quote Bathory as a big influence.

Bathory ended with Quorthon's unexpected death on 7 June 2004.

It´s hard to write something.After this person left a few boards that never erase from the history of black metal itself.Maybe a few notes,which are less known: Quorthon never went into any employment.After release the first album of Bathory fed on music only.From profit of the sale "one" was paid for publishing the first titles of the Black Mark Production (first Edge Of Sanity, first Invocator for example).
